How are TSA Scores determined?

The Software Authority strives to be different! Our results are based on factual data and you will never see a non-certified product that you never heard of being rated highly for the sole purpose of pushing sales like we often see on other review sites.

With increasing computer processor speeds being able to handle heavy workloads and improving performance significantly, TSA Scores are focused more on how well a security product protects your system from malware, viruses, and threats as opposed to how much system impact does this security product have. Reality is, if you obtain a nasty Ransomware virus as an example, does having a product that uses limited computer resources matter if you can no longer access your computer?

The TSA Score is determined by analyzing the latest review data from multiple independent testing laboratories, other reputable third party review sites and our many years of experience in the security software industry. The results from these sources are then inputted into a proprietary formula that determines the final TSA Score.

G Data Total Security

All-round security with a Password Manager and customised backups

Anti-Ransomware

No opportunity for extortion Trojans: our Anti-Ransomware technology detects extortion Trojans before they can take your data hostage. We protect you against criminals trying to encrypt your photos, documents and personal data.

Backups

Automatically back up your data locally on your PC or in the Cloud. With password-protected backups, your data always stays protected. Use Google Drive or Dropbox for your data backup.

Encryption

Protect confidential information and files with a password. Then they can only be accessed by people you genuinely trust. Also encrypt external storage media such as USB sticks in this way. Encrypt them by simply using your secure password – without having to install software first.

Access Control

Specify who is allowed to use USB sticks, burners, hard drives and other devices on your PC. With Access Control, you can manage the use of all your USB slots. This will stop malware getting onto your computer via external storage media.
